Saturdays and Sundays 3710 Washington St., Jamaica Plain, 61,. (The covered back patio is a big selling point, too.) On weekends, though, a fuller brunch menu ups the ante: the French toast is made with Brassica’s outstanding doughnuts, the cheesy eggs and rice are loaded up with shallots and chili sauce, and a list of kicky cocktails is available, including black tea spiked with Cynar, lemon, and honey. This fantastic, funky, fermentation-forward Jamaica Plain cafe serves A-plus breakfast sandwiches on weekdays, including fried chicken on a biscuit with pickled jalapeños and a tamari hollandaise. Sundays 1375 Washington St., Boston, 61,. Add a Bloody Mary to the mix-as well as a giant, ice cream-topped sticky bun-then enjoy on the pleasant patio.
Besides the expected prime cuts, carnivores can find a steak and egg burrito with chipotle aioli and chimichurri dip bowls of linguini bolognese loaded with veal, beef, and pancetta and, yes, one hell of a burger.
If the scent of a sizzling steak is what it takes to bait you out of bed on a weekend, be tempted by this beefy brunch menu.
There’s a big ol’ brunch menu at Boston Chops’ South End location.
